Chapter 37 Explaining The Contract And Conditions

• “What parts of it don’t you understand, my dear?” He asked, a carefully blank expression on his face, as the smile disappeared from it as though it had never been there.
• “I thought you paid off my dad’s debt.” Carol began, color flooding her face at even having to broach such a topic. It was an embarrassing subject, to say the least. This man did not owe her dad or family anything, as they were solely responsible for their actions, but then, he was the one who had come to her family to offer his help.
• “I did … to an extent. The remaining part depends on you and your ability to fulfill my demands. Since you’ve read the contract now, you know what it requires of you, and since we are on the subject, I would like to clarify some things. First of all, my nephew has not seen the contract, nor does he have any wish to see it, as he says he does not care what my dealings with your family are. He only knows what I’ve told him about it. He is quite nonchalant about the whole thing. In fact, the only thing that interested him about the whole thing was making sure that you signed a prenup, which I guess you’ve already signed.” It sounded like a question, so she answered him.
